"Yifeijun, are you looking for sponsorship from China and then controlling the Prost team?"

"If it's just because of the Ferrari engine, I'm sure you have to discuss it with your boss and he will definitely consider and respect your opinion. After all, it's our shared dream to build a tougher JS series car and win the championship for the team. ”

"And if you want to buy a stake in Prost Racing, it's too difficult for you at this stage."

Junko Takeda persuaded that Zhang Yifei's current identity is just an ordinary driver, and he has not yet left the rookie season.

As a driver, Zhang Yifei now only needs to think about how to create better results in the competition, and things in terms of racing car development and team operation are not suitable for his current status.

And if you want to control an F1-level team, for Zhang Yifei at this stage, the difficulty is equivalent to a fool's dream. So Junko Takeda doesn't quite understand why Zhang Yifei did this.

Hearing Junko Takeda's words, Zhang Yifei understood her mentality very well, and indeed his current actions could be described as crazy.

However, the corners of Zhang Yifei's mouth showed a faint smile, and then in a calm tone, he said a meaningful word.

"When fate makes me stand at this point in time, I still have to do something for Chinese racing after all."

"Really? But is this a little bit early? ”

Junko Takeda didn't actually understand the meaning behind Zhang Yifei's words, she just simply thought that Zhang Yifei wanted to build a Chinese F1 team.

"If it's late, there's no chance."

Zhang Yifei knew that this historical process, if there was not much change, 40% of the shares of the Prost team were only sold for tens of millions of dollars.

You must know that the annual budget of an F1 team is at least about 100 million, and a large team of the level of Ferrari has a budget of hundreds of millions easily.

Therefore, the team's initial investment is very huge, and now tens of millions of dollars can buy 40% of the shares of an F1 team, and become the largest shareholder, complete the control of the team, which is definitely the price of cabbage!

And Zhang Yifei is a Prost driver, he clearly understands that he has inherited the legacy of the Ligier team, Prost's foundation is actually not weak, and there is no problem in the current F1 team.

If you can't do it, you should spend tens of millions of dollars to pack a top racing team, an F1-level car research and development department, and several top aerodynamics experts, and this price will not lose much.

After this village, there is no such shop, and a Prost team can advance the development of China's motorsports by 20 years, and maybe indirectly promote the development of the automobile industry.

Since Zhang Yifei decided to let Uncle Lu lay the foundation of the primary formula in China, he also didn't want to miss this opportunity to control the first formula in advance. The foundation and the top level work together to create an echelon system of Chinese formula racing faster.

And take 10,000 steps back and say, even if nothing succeeds in the end, the money will not be lost. F1 season-end dividends, development of peripheral products, sponsorship advertising revenue, etc., backed by such a large market as China, if tens of millions of dollars can't be recovered, it can only be said that the team's low level of operation is terrible!

Hearing Zhang Yifei say this, Junko Takeda did not continue to persuade him.

Because Junko Takeda knows Zhang Yifei, although he is not very old, he is definitely not a whimsical and impractical person. Since Zhang Yifei is so determined, there must be a reason for him.

From the beginning of Toyota's youth training, Junko Takeda has accompanied Zhang Yifei to overcome many difficulties. Even if it is an unrealistic dream, she will still stand behind Zhang Yifei this time, this is the team!

After buying the afternoon ticket and packing their luggage, Zhang Yifei and Junko Takeda went to Sao Paulo International Airport under the escort of several bodyguards, ready to fly to Hong Kong Island.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhang Yifei walked away very low-key this time, and even the few bodyguards in straight suits changed into regular clothes and tried not to attract attention.

When he returned to Hong Kong Island, Zhang Yifei also learned from the experience of the last time, masks, baseball caps, sunglasses and everything was available, basically it was unlikely that he could see from his facial features that he was Zhang Yifei.

However, this time Zhang Yifei came back very suddenly, and after being injured and hospitalized, the team refused to be interviewed by various media in order to allow Zhang Yifei to better recover from his injuries, let alone report Zhang Yifei's itinerary. Therefore, the domestic media and fans did not know the news of Zhang Yifei's return to China, and no one was squatting in the airport, and the previous scene of being surrounded was not staged.

In the underground garage of Hong Kong Island International Airport, Lu Ningping drove a station wagon and waited here early, and he did this to avoid attracting attention, so he did not go to the exit passage to pick up the airport.

Because of the scene where Zhang Yifei surpassed Schumacher in the Brazilian Grand Prix, domestic media, including Hong Kong Island, basically published the headlines on the front page, which caused a sensational effect across the country.

You must know that this is the first time that a Chinese driver has surpassed the world's No. 1 opponent in the F1 race, and finally occupied the position of the first car, almost winning the championship.

There is no doubt that Zhang Yifei's performance at the Brazilian Grand Prix showed that he has what it takes to win the championship on the F1 circuit. If nothing else, in the near future, China will have its first Formula champion driver!

This is not only the glory of the whole of Chinese motorsports, but also the pinnacle of the whole of Asian motorsports. Formula 1, which has been monopolized by white drivers since then, yellow drivers will occupy a place!

So in China, Zhang Yifei's influence has broken through the racing circle and began to move towards the level of a national idol. It can be said that the gap between him and Liu Xiang in 08 is now only one championship title that has reached the top!

While Lu Ningping was waiting, he kept looking at the watch on his wrist, not that he couldn't hold his breath, but behind Zhang Yifei's new high results, it was the news of his injury in a car crash.

For an elder like Lu Ningping, even if it is a sub-station champion, it is not as safe as Zhang Yifei, and he wants to know more quickly what Zhang Yifei's current injury is.

About a dozen minutes later, the elevator door opened, and two figures, a man and a woman, appeared. Zhang Yifei limped out of the elevator with one side of the crutches and the other hand supported by Junko Takeda.

Even if Zhang Yifei is now "fully armed", Lu Ningping can still easily recognize it at a glance. It's just that seeing Zhang Yifei like this now, Lu Ningping's eyes instantly turned red.

The little guy who once firmly chose the path of racing, the kid who was always full of energy and fighting spirit during training, and the young driver who was indomitable in foreign competitions, now has become a person who needs support even when walking.

When all the halo faded, Zhang Yifei was just an eighteen-year-old young man, and behind all his achievements was his dedication and hard work. It is precisely because Lu Ningping is the first generation of Chinese motorsports pioneers that he can better understand how difficult it is for Chinese drivers to go global.

Zhang Yifei has really done his best.

The moment the elevator door opened, Zhang Yifei actually saw Uncle Lu standing next to the car, he thought that Lu Ningping would be excited to come over and hug him or something. But unexpectedly, Uncle Lu stood in place, looking at himself as if in a daze.

This situation surprised Zhang Yifei, he had to walk over step by step, and under the dim light of the underground garage, it shone in Lu Ningping's eyes, with a strange brilliance.

"Uncle Lu?"

When Zhang Yifei was about to come to Lu Ningping, he shouted softly.

Hearing this shout, Lu Ningping squeezed his eyes hard to hide the eye sockets that were already moist just now. How can you say that you are also an elder, and you have always had the image of a "tough guy driver", how can you be hypocritical in front of your juniors?

"I'm back, how's the leg injury?"

As Lu Ningping spoke, he walked up to Zhang Yifei and took advantage of the situation to help him with his other hand.

Looking at Lu Ningping's movements, Zhang Yifei replied with a relaxed face: "It's just a little bone crack, it's not a big problem, don't worry." ”

In fact, Lu Ningping's early professional rally career, there were countless similar injuries, and indeed for a professional driver, a bone crack can only be regarded as a minor injury, and he doesn't want Zhang Yifei to be injured in the future and scream like a sissy.

So even though he was still very worried in his heart, he patted Zhang Yifei on the shoulder on the surface and said: "Even if you are an adult, even if you are a man, this injury is really nothing for a professional driver." ”

"Come, get ready to get in the car, I've been on a plane for about 20 hours, and I'll get home and rest first."

"Uncle Lu won't tell you, I've been waiting to eat my aunt's food for a long time, and the food abroad is simply indescribable!"

"Haha, your aunt has prepared a big table of meals, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it!"

After saying a few words, Zhang Yifei got into the station wagon and drove towards Uncle Lu's house.

"By the way, Uncle Lu, do you have any ideas and directions about the sponsorship I talked to you about on the phone before?"

Before coming to Hong Kong Island, when Zhang Yifei informed Uncle Lu by phone, he simply told him his thoughts, hoping that he could contact some entrepreneurs on Hong Kong Island to negotiate about controlling Prost Racing Team.

After all, tens of millions of dollars is not a small amount, especially in this era, it is even more difficult to invest in a relatively unfamiliar F1 team in China. Except for state-owned enterprises, it is difficult to find enterprises in the mainland that have the will and ambition in this regard.

However, the huge investment of state-owned enterprises involves too wide a wide range of aspects, and the approval of all aspects is much more complicated, so entrepreneurs on Hong Kong Island are also the key direction of Zhang Yifei's cooperation.

After all, Hong Kong Island in this era is indeed ahead of the mainland in accepting certain new things, and it is more likely to attract investment.

Anyway, time waits for no one, first of all, Chinese holdings.
